A Look Back at the Men of Eva Mendes's Life

When: 2002-2011

Mendes dated the Peruvian producer for nine years before the two parted ways. While they were dating, the actress told Hollywood Life that she wasn't interested in marriage. "I just don't think marriage is necessary, as necessary as society makes it. And I don't have a negative point of view on it. I just think it's a very old tradition and if you look back to what marriage symbolizes in the first place . . . it has nothing with why we get married today."
